From Thug to Idol: Transmigrating to a Survival Show-Chapter 870: Comeback Discussions

"Dang, these headphones are really good," Jisung said, amusement seen on his face as he walked through the hallways of Azure Entertainment.

He was on his way to the meeting room so they could finally discuss the date and preparation for their comeback.

Jisung was all alone because he decided to stop by the company's cafeteria to buy some brownies. Meanwhile, the others came from prior schedules.

He walked down the hallways, trying his best to prevent himself from popping and locking because the headphones that June gave him were topnotch. The bass was the best, and it even had some noise-cancellation features!

As he walked through the practice rooms, where music could sometimes be heard, he decided to test out the noise-cancellation features by removing his headphones and putting them back again.

"Waah, this is really amazing," he muttered as his hearing senses were overwhelmed with nothing but music when he put on the headphones.

He did this multiple times, finding it fascinating every time, like a little kid.

Jisung chuckled to himself as he fully removed his headphones and placed them around his neck.

A fraction of the music could still be heard from its current position, but aside from that, the ambient noise from the hallways of the practice rooms was also prominent.

Jisung hummed a tune under his breath-the song he had been working on for the longest time.

Just then, he stopped walking when he saw that one of the practice room doors was slightly ajar. He smiled and walked over to the door.

"I would appreciate it if someone closed it for me," he muttered, feeling excited to do a good deed.

There was some music coming from inside, one that sounded awfully familiar.

Jisung frowned and held onto the slightly ajar door, feeling something strange bloom inside his heart.

He leaned closer, hoping to hear more of the song. However, before he could do so, the music abruptly ended, and he was brought back to reality.

Jisung heard some footsteps coming inside, so he quietly closed the door and walked away with some hesitation.

However, as he got close to the meeting room, he still couldn't shake away the fact that the song sounded quite familiar.

"Ji!" Ren exclaimed as soon as he went through the doors.

Jisung snapped out of his thoughts and smiled at his teammates. It seemed like he was the last one to arrive.

His cheeks reddened as he bowed, quickly taking his seat next to June.

June smirked when he saw the headphones around Jisung's neck, feeling satisfied that the younger member was using his gift.

"We're complete now," Lei said with a wide smile. "Good. We have plenty of things to talk about today."

The members of EVE nodded, suddenly turning serious. Despite their playful nature, they appeared very professional when it came to their work.

"We have Ted and Mari here," Lei said. "They will continue to spearhead your album like your last one."

The boys, along with Jay, pursed their lips to hide their disappointment. They remembered how their last album didn't perform as well as their debut because Teddy influenced their title track too much.

Mari saw the looks in their eyes and reassuringly smiled.

"We've already talked about it with Sir Lei," she quickly disclaimed. "We have heard some of the songs that you've given the production team, and Sir Lei had personally told us to incorporate it in the album."

The boys sighed in relief, including June. He had expected the worst from Lei. However, it seemed like he was decent when it came to giving them artistic freedom.

"Now, there will be ten songs in the album," Mari continued. "So, we will fill in that space. The title track still hasn't been decided. However, we will decide on it soon."

Jaeyong raised his hand. "Do we have any room for another song suggestion? What if one of suddenly has something to show?" he asked, glancing at Jisung, who had a thoughtful look on his face.

Lei's eyebrows furrowed in confusion.

"What do you mean?" he asked. "Are you guys working on another song besides the ones you've sent?"

"Jisung-"

"Jisung really likes the songs we've sent," Jisung quickly interrupted Akira before he could finish his statement, even pertaining to himself in third person. "Yeah, I really like them," he awkwardly added.

Akira looked at him with wide, inquiring eyes, but Jisung merely shook his head.

The others were also confused; however, seeing that their youngest member looked uncomfortable, they decided to let it go.

"Umm, I'm just wondering," Jaeyong justified his last question.

Lei pursed his lips. "Well, that would depend. I guess we can accommodate it as long as it's good for the album. However, we would prefer if you give us all your songs now, even if they're unfinished, because Teddy, Mari, and their team would work to complete them."

"We are also looking for a group to choreograph the chosen title track in the future," he

continued.

The members exchanged uneasy gazes before nodding. The situation was already much better than their last album, so they felt like they couldn't complain further.

"Now that all of that has been established," Lei continued. "I'm going to relay the rough timeline of the comeback."

"We are going to start recording the songs you've sent, especially the confirmed side tracks," he said.

"Then, by your first-year anniversary, the album and everything else shall be accomplished." "The choreography of the title track will follow after we choose the title track by the second week of September."

The boys frowned as soon as they heard the timeline.

"The second week of September?" Zeth asked. "Isn't that too long? Shouldn't we rush things now since November is only around the corner?"

"It's alright," Lei said. "You guys debuted in the third week of November anyway, and aside from that, some of your members won't be present for the next weeks."

The boys turned to each other with wide eyes, finally realizing what Lei was talking about.

"Casper, Jisung," Lei started off.

"The two of you shall be joining the new season of 'Everyday, Everynight.""
